Before the time of political boundaries people roamed the natural 
landscape in ways that harmonized with the nature patterns of waterways, 
forests, and wildlife migration. Today, we have artificially created 
boundaries that relate more to wars and treaties than to the 
characteristics of land topography and vegetation type.

A "bioregion" is a loose definition of an area whose environmental 
characteristics are similar and interconnected. Bioregions are often 
divided by watersheds or mountains but are ultimately decided by the 
participants who organize efforts around preserving the health and 
integrity of the area.   

During this Lecture, Steve Gabriel of Finger Lakes Permaculture 
Institute will provide an overview of the bioregional concept and also 
showcase the variety of topics that will be presented throughout the 
year. This is a new lecture series on the third Thursday of each month 
that will highlight different elements of our Finger Lakes Bioregion in 
order to paint a picture of the place we call home.
